Why, Oh Why... do I slack on something I love so much?

I'm not sure the purpose on slacking on something that brings me so much joy. I've neglected my delightful blog friend for no good reason. I think she's most angry with me because she knows about all of the great adventures I could have been sharing.

To make it up to myself (and lady blog), I'm posting some fun pictures of what happens when I drink saki!

God bless the saki gods for the serious mind's antidote!

4. They wrote it on my jersey (... and yes, I have a jersey)!

5. I'm learning to paddle board today (on a ice cold lake)
